Big Brothers Chicken Wings Recipes

Steps:

• In a small bowl or zip lock bag mix together the flour, paprika, cayenne pepper (optional) and salt. Place chicken wings in a large nonporous glass bowl or zip lock bag and sprinkle flour mixture over them until they are evenly coated on all sides. Cover bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
• Combine the butter, hot sauce and lemon juice in a small saucepan over low heat. Stir together and heat until butter is melted and mixture is well blended. Remove from heat and reserve for serving.
• Heat oil in a deep fryer or fry daddy to 375° F the oil should be just enough to cover wings entirely, an inch or so deep.
• Fry coated wings in hot oil for about 8 minutes, or until they float up and wings turn golden brown. Drain and place wings in serving bowl, add hot sauce mixture and stir together. Serve with celery sticks and blue cheese or ranch dressing.

Steps:

• Preheat Broiler.
• Line bottom of broiler pan with foil (for easy clean up). Add a small amount of water, about 1/4 cup. (optional).
• Spray top part of broiler pan with Vegetable Spray Oil (Pam).
• Arrange chicken wing segments, top side down, on broiler pan.
• Place rack on top setting directly under heating element in oven (I have an electric oven).
• Broil for 10 or 11 minutes, flip over and broil for another 10 or 11 minutes.
• While wings are broiling make sauce.
• Place butter, vinegar, and hot sauce in a large plastic container with a sealable lid (Tupperware).
• Microwave until butter is melted.
• Place cooked, hot, wings into container with melted butter, etc.
• Shake once or twice. Open lid to let steam escape or it'll just pop off and then you will have a mess on your hands. Repeat until wings are evenly coated.
• Serve with cut up carrot sticks and celery sticks, with Blue Cheese or Ranch Dressing for dipping.
• Best served with lots of beer, but then, what isn't?
